Last week, if you have HughesNet as your dialup-over-the-satellite ISP, you noticed your speeds took a hit. This week, you'll notice if you have any pages with multiple picture files (ie. jpg, png), your page load times will literally take minutes (PLURAL and MORE than a few minutes).
All part of HughesNet "traffic shaping" strategy to try to get you to upgrade from the overpriced $60/mth service to something more expensive.
Where Japan and other countries are providing more bandwidth for less cost, the US has allowed corporations to do the exact opposite.
This is why the US competive edge was lost. This is why investors are looking at other places to do business instead of the US.
Something tells me all the MBAs running companies these days think it's a license to run the business in the ground and run their customers off.
Something tells me that strategy is working.
